The sub im looking at is a 2ohm

 

[cjacks2011 10+ year member]

would this amp be good for the subs if I got both L7's? http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=1818

Right now looking at the prices I think im gonna stay with one L7 for a long while so does this mean I should go with a 750w mono amp?

And what type of box would be better a sealed or ported?

 

[cjacks2011 10+ year member]

but if I stay with one sub should I just get a mono 750w amp?

yea u could do that..but ur better off with both ported...and a nicer amp

2.5-3 cubes ported with about 600-800 watts rms running to it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 

[cjacks2011 10+ year member]

so the amp should be around 750w @ 2ohms?

 

[wolfman1966 10+ year member]

nope, someone correct me if i am wrong, but if its Dual Voice Coil 2ohms, then it will wire to 1ohm,(look at the diagrams I posted before) so you need a 1 ohm stable 750 watt mono amp, to power the one L7

and ported tends to get louder than sealed.

 

[wolfman1966 10+ year member]

woops, I was wrong DVC 2ohm wires to 4ohms, so it would be a 750 watt amp @4ohms

and NO do not get the volfenhag, they are terrible

 

[skadude016 5,000+ posts]

he can wire it to 4 ohms also

 

[cjacks2011 10+ year member]
